(Going to go ahead and toss the next couple of entries up while I'm checking e-mail. Hopefully should know soon enough if this is working. --6/28/09)

More proof e-mail works. More proof the Internet is a strange place, even post-5/6.

"To Whom it May Concern:

I am Matt D. Leethen, owner and founder of SubNet Ltd., a privately-owned ISP and website hosting service. Since May 6, we have turned to focusing on providing hosting for sites and developers whose hosts and/or servers were damaged in the attacks.

Subnet believes that one of the most vital services the Internet can provide in today's world is the means to remind us of that which was lost, including -- but by no means limited to -- accurate first-hand reporting of life in today's America. Therefore, we at Subnet make a special effort to provide help and support to sites falling into this category. Yours, obviously, was such a site.

We have noticed that your online account of life after the attacks has recently gone down. Perhaps you've noticed a similar problem amongst similar sites. We believe we know the cause of these issues, and SubNet can help you to get live once again.

Most importantly, due to the nature of your site and the purpose of SubNet, we wish to offer this support for free. Not free as in 'free trial' or 'free information,' but free as in 'service for the public good.'

I sincerely hope, personally, that you will consider this offer. I believe this will be of great interest and benefit to you. Should you be interested and/or have any questions, please respond using the e-mail address given below.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

--M. Leethen,
CEO SubNet Ltd.

This is...good news? A bit convenient? Odd?

All of the above?

But hey, if you're reading this and it's the Future then I guess I took them up on their offer and everything panned out legitimately?
